USDollar getting hit hard in Asia now

quotes.ino.com

from 102 flat to 101.4 suddenly

I think the war goes downhill from here
for a while
if Basran region is not secure after it so easily fell, then this augurs poorly for other towns quickly seized
I think Iraqis are playing possum, allowing USForces to advance too far, overcommitted

I root for USForces to have success
but I just dont have confidence that we will clean up in two weeks like 100's of 1000's of Americans expect
I also expect we will make numerous mistakes, after several already
e.g. UN, Europe, Turkey

in fact, we have had more screwups so far than in any other previous war battle I can recall
yet almost everyone says this is expertly planned and proceeding flawlessly
I dont think so
